Bridport History Goes Under The Hammer

Bridport history dating back as far as the year 1253 can be bought at auction this morning.

The town's auction rooms is the venue where you could pick up a book celebrating 700 years of Bridport's charter.

As well as full size Ordanance Survey Maps from the 1880's across South and West Dorset, council documents from early last century and a picture of Joseph Gundry, a major figure in Bridport's rope industry are up for grabs.
